reviews_and_ramblingsOne of the most versatile and talented artists who creates art for book jackets is Honi Werner.
Honi Werner has created paintings for book covers by a broad selection of literary as well as mystery authors from Bebe Moore Campbell to E. L. Doctorow, John Irving to Thomas Berger, Isabel Allende to Philippa Gregory, Peter Hoeg and Donna Leon.
As Ms. Werner moved into the digital world, she stopped painting on a physical canvas and began to paint on her computer.
Jennifer Weiner about the cover of In Her Shoes: "Ooh, ooh, ooh! The cover for IN HER SHOES is done! Unfortunately, the cover is also at my publisher's office in New York City. They're overnighting it to me here in Philadelphia. I'm not sure I'll be able to sleep tonight. I can't wait to see that cover! The artist is Honi Werner, who did the fabulous cover for GOOD IN BED, and many others. Any time I pick up a book and say, "Wow, great cover," and turn it over to see the artist's name, it's usually Honi. Step Ball Change? That's her. Same with the gorgeous The Side of the Angels, and Lucy Crocker 2.0, and so many more."
